So why The Route Shop?
The Route Shop is an initiative of anna.aero - the free Airline Network News & Analysis and website totally dedicated to airline network planning.
Airlines can already find out a great deal about any airport just by using search engines. But they can’t easily find out which new routes airports desire, nor the evidence to support claims that these services are viable.
The Route Shop is an online store where airlines can go to find routes. Anyone can enter The Route Shop at any time – like anna.aero it is totally open, free-of-charge and has no silly log-ins or passwords.

The Route Shop and ACI EUROPE
In order to maximise store content, The Route Shop has entered a partnership with ACI EUROPE which sees exposure via The Route Shop as an important new way that new air services will be identified. In the age of e-commerce, the Route Shop is an important new membership benefit and is expected to join anna.aero as a benchmark electronic product for air service development.
